Apple is already working on the third generation iPhone Ultra

Don't be confused by the fact that the first iPhone Ultra hasn't come out yet...

Insiders claim that Apple is already planning the second generation of the flip phone for the end of 2027, and the third for 2028.

There are few specifics. The iPhone Ultra is expected to have a larger display in 2028.

But it turns out funny: the product has not yet been presented, but its third generation is already being planned.

What if the iPhone Ultra repeats the fate of the Apple Vision Pro and in a year few people will need it?
